Pursuit is a tense classic science fiction novella by Lester del Rey, built around fear, memory, time travel, and the terrifying suspicion that unseen enemies are closing in. Wilbur Hawkes wakes with a gap in his memory and a sense of danger he cannot explain. As he tries to understand what has happened to him, ordinary reality begins to feel unstable: hidden forces, fragments of lost knowledge, strange pursuit, and the pressure of the subconscious pull him into a mystery that is both psychological and scientific.
First published in the magazine era of early 1950s science fiction, Pursuit combines suspense, speculative ideas, and del Rey's practical storytelling sense. Its themes of memory, identity, time travel, and mental pressure make it a strong fit for readers of Golden Age science fiction, vintage SF novellas, psychological science fiction, and compact mid-century speculative adventure. Explore other exciting Positronic Books devoted to classic science fiction, fantasy, and mystery.
